Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

How about a water gun? It's long range, does little damage, but slows down enemies (useful for bosses or bots with a lot of HP) so then you can switch weapons and fire at them while their slowed down.

Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

How about a type of shield weapon round the player so if he's surrounded, just use that?

Nah, that would just be cheap because most enemies rely on charging at you.

UPDATE! http://spamtheweb.com/ul/upload/180410/67871_SH_05.php
Title screen ( I STILL NEED A NAME), and weapon switching (I only included the unnamed weapon and railgun though)

Press Q and E to pick the weapon.

Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

How about an advanced kind-of-hard-to-use blaster that shoots at the sides? So, for example, if you shot and your mouse was facing 90o, then it would shoot at 180o and 0o?

Good idea, a hard to use blaster.

I could just use the original glitchy aiming formula ^.^

Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

The 'Flamethrower' (Or that's what it should be) causes lag...

Name - The Last Fighter? Or - Super Ship?

Sun Cannon (Name stolen from StormWinds - But it's different!): Click and hold to charge, then shoots a big, powerful sun bullet.

Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

Also, maybe, a gun that shoots one single blast? The blast hits the wall and it bounces, then disintegrates when it hits the wall again?

That will fail. Completely. There are no walls.

And no I will not make it bounce off enemies.

Oh yeah and ability list update:
Green:
Move extremely quickly (3x normal speed!) for 2 seconds

Red:
Epic shooting (NO reload time) for 0.75 second.

Oh yeah one last thing: rail gun and big cannon have recoil (you go in the opposite direction of the shot. Why is my eye twitching?

Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

Then you should make it so if you use a gun enough, it can be upgraded. For example, the normal blaster could become a triple-shot, and the second gun I suggested also shoot behind you as well?

Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

I think the leech weapon would be cool. It would give you 1 life per successful hit. Long reload, though.

Well, actually the unnamed weapon can be used like that if you aim at yourself (then rounds randomly spread out)

Another update.

Reduced the number of particles in the unnamed epic weapon to stop lag, and gave the basic robot a special (MASSIVE SHOT  big_smile !!!). Also rail guns, heavy cannons and massive shots can pierce through opponents without disappearing.
You're randomly given weapons, although because of how the picker works, you're most likely to get a rail gun unnamed combination, and you'll rarely get basic and cannon.

Very much improved. Cool.

Are you going to make it so enemies can DROP weapons?

Nope, but they'll drop robot upgrades.

Re: Game testing, scratchers only!

Unnamed weapon name idea: Particle beam/beacon

Also, try out making my leech gun idea. Each hit gives you super power points/life.

Have you seen what a rail gun can do?

Think about it like this...
If you can click 10 times per second (I can  tongue )...
You could shoot around 7-8 times.
Every rail gun shot will fly across the map, killing most things.
A screen filled with enemies.
DIE!!!

What do you guys think of the basic robot special?
massive piercing shot.
Yeah, green seems to have the worst special right now, maybe I'll make it charge a lot more quickly.

BTW blue's one is going to be +10% health/ second. For something like.....20 seconds?

And also I DO have a health bar working, but I'll do weapon select before upload.

EDIT2: do any of you know how to make achievements? THAT ARE SAVED?
